A collaborative effort by several organizations (notably the
Institute for the Preservation of the Original Languages of the
Americas, the Hopi Tribe Cultural Preservation Office, the
Hotevilla-Bacavi Community School, and the University of Arizona's
Bureau of Applied Research in Anthropology), each of these books
tells a story of how coyote is tricked by his own greed. Both are
illustrated by Hopi schoolchildren, contain sections on teaching
Hopi language and culture, and are perfect for schools, libraries,
or to commemorate a visit to the Hopi reservation or the Southwest
in general. Grade for both: an enthusiastic A+. Reviewed by Steve Brock
